NOTE: Values for CP, NDICP, and ADICP are the same as those presented in Table 15-1. The N fraction and Kd data are a summary of published values. The example RUP values were calculated using the equations in the text and in the case of dry forages the N fractions (A,B, and C), the Kd of the B

fraction, and the NDF values reported in the feed tables. Most of the amino acid values are courtesy of Degussa Corporation with a majority of the values obtained from the book, ‘‘The Amino Acid Composition of Feedstuffs’’ (Fickler et al., 1996). Exceptions are values for extruded soybean meal, whole
sunflower seeds, safflower meal, and some of the data for nonenzymatically browned soybean meal (courtesy of Rhone-Poulenc Animal Nutrition), values for feather meal with some viscera (Cunningham et al, 1994), values for tomato pomace (US-Canadian Table of Feed Composition, 1982), and values for
dried brewers grains, hominy, fish byproducts, linseed meal, and safflower meal (NRC, 1998). The amino acid values for the grass-legume mixtures of hays and silages were calculated from the values for all grass and all legume forages assuming 75% grass and 25% legume for predominantly grass, 50% grass
and 50% legume for mixed grass and legume, and 25% grass and 75% legume for predominantly legume.

NOTE: The compositions of hydrated mineral sources (e.g., CaSO4 2H2O) are shown including the waters of hydration. Mineral element compositions of feed-
grade sources vary by source, processing method, site of mining, and manufacturer. Sources should be analyzed or manufacturer’s analyses should be
used when available. Element composition of a source is listed if specific element concentration is ⱖ1.0% for macromineral elements, or ⱖ10,000 mg/
kg for micromineral elements, except for fluorine concentrations which are listed because of potential toxicity.
a
First digit denotes the class of feed: 1, dry forages and roughages; 2, pastured, range plants, and forages fed green; 3, silages; 4, energy feeds; 5,
protein supplement; 6, minerals; 7, vitamins; 8, additives. The other five digits identify the individual feed.
b
Dry matter contents have been estimated for the sources; actual analysis will be more accurate.
c
fg ⳱ Feed-grade source.
d
None present.
e
cp ⳱ Chemically pure form.
f
NA ⳱ Not available.
g
Use caution when handling and mixing; can be extremely hazardous.
